It’s been ten years since the last harvesting, and all signs point to their return: mutilated animals, haunting visions, and their mothership hovering over the lake. Leina suspects the greys have come back to collect their favorite power source—humans—but her intuition also reveals a mother’s worst fear: they’re after her daughter, Amalee. Will she be able to stop them? Can she save her daughter before it’s too late?
